A new condition classification method is put forward based on the analysis of vibration signals. Machine working condition can be recognized by the combination of wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) and multi-scale entropy (MSE). Firstly, vibration signal of machine is decomposed by wavelet packet with the appropriate decomposition layer. Then, each sub-signal in different frequency band is analyzed with the multi-scale entropy. Through analyzing the multi-scale entropy distribution curves of

This method presents a novel perspective for rolling bearing default diagnosis and is tested to be very effective to classify different bearing operating conditions through series of experiments.
